Terlingua, Texas
Historical frontier/western lodging, next to the Old Frontier Dance Hall which is under construction to reopen. Open kitchen, dining, and living area, one bedroom with a king sized bed, and one full bathroom with bathtub/shower combo. Inside you will find themed murals painted by a local artist! Outside you will be able to enjoy a wrap-around porch with a grill and outdoor seating.
The description and photos of the property are very accurate. The place was very clean with an open concept, and more than enough room for the two of us. Internet worked inside and on the porch during our stay. Nice remote location, so bring food, and drinking water. Really enjoyed sitting on the porch in the nice, quiet evenings, and looking at the stars at night. Beautiful country. Only 20 or so minutes to Terilingua and just a little more to Big Bend.
If you are looking for a quite get away this is the place. Its 21.5 miles from Terlingua just off 183. Great location. My family and I loved staying here. It was clean , easy to get to and great for star gazing.
This location worked for our week vacation in Big Bend. It’s a bit of a drive each day so plan accordingly. The listing indicates a washer and dryer and that was one of the reasons for booking this location. We wanted to pack light and be able to do laundry, especially our hiking clothes. Not until after we booked and paid did we find out that the washer and dryer are not for guest use. This should be taken off the amenities list so future guests know when searching for a place to stay.
Beautiful stars and sunrises are such a great part of your stay here! We heard the coyotes at night, so we really felt “out there”. The property is remote and peaceful with very cool decor, including some unique repurposed pieces. The high ceilings give it a very open feel. We had easy access to kayaking, zip-lining, and hiking at the state park. If you want to get away from it all, this is the place. You are in the desert, so plan and pack accordingly.
Accurate photos and description - a great open living arrangement with quirky decor about 20-25 minutes from Terlingua, and only a few minutes more to Big Bend. The patio was great in the evenings and a small fire pit available for use. Owing to the remoteness, it's fairly quiet other than the road, but also means you should come with food and charcoal (including drinking water - water on site is not potable). The setup is great for 2 people, but can definitely fit more if the hosts allow. Would highly recommend for a quaint desert retreat that's close enough for convenience, but far enough away for the solitude.
Great place to stay to visit Big Bend. The house was fun and funky. It’s new and clean and has everything you need. The owners were always quick to respond to questions. We enjoyed sitting outside on the porches looking at the night sky. Internet worked well inside when we were there. The property is about 30 miles from the park. Would definitely stay here again.
If you are ready for a frontier adventure, this is the place for you! Located on a remote stretch of Highway 118, 27 miles north of the western entrance to Big Bend National Park, and 25 miles north of the village of Terlingua, this property will give you access to magnificent scenery, brilliant night skies and surreal stillness and quiet. You may even feel that you have stepped back in time to the wild west! The one bedroom unit is spacious with high ceilings and eclectic western décor. Pam and Valerie, the host/owners were very accommodating and helpful. Check out The Little Burro, the country store nearby, for things you forgot, but plan and pack well as prices are high and provisions limited in the area. Remember your passport if you plan to enter Mexico (you can take a rowboat across the Rio Grande to a small village from inside the Park). So open your eyes in wonder and have fun exploring!
